MacPulse update — 3 months later - Your mac explained

完整上下文原始内容 · Reddit

Hi everyone, I posted MacPulse here about 3 months ago (previous post (https://www.reddit.com/r/macapps/comments/1sk7b98/macpulse_system_insights_an_app_for_2_kinds_of/) Problem Raw system stats don't answer questions. I got tired of Googling whether 67% memory usage or 78°C was something to worry about, so I built a system monitor with an Insights Engine that explains your Mac in plain English: instead of "Memory Pressure: Warning" you get "Memory pressure reached warning 4 times today, up 8% week-over-week. Chrome is the primary consumer." New since my last post — and the reason I'm posting again — is Ask Insights: MacPulse now records per-app CPU, memory, disk I/O and energy history, and you can just ask it questions: "How high did CPU go yesterday?", "Which apps drained my battery today?", "Did Xcode use a lot of CPU during that build?". Answered entirely on-device by Apple Intelligence — no cloud, no account, no data leaves your Mac. (Requires macOS 26 on an Apple-Intelligence-capable Mac, direct-download version.) Also new in the last 3 months: a shareable Report Card (a polished image of your Mac's specs + live readings, same for recorded gaming/render sessions with 1% low FPS and peak temps), browsable 30-day insights history with one-click actions, customizable dashboard, per-drive speeds for external disks, GPU frequency, and full localization into Spanish, French, German, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese. Comparison The two apps I get compared to most are iStat Menus and TG Pro, and both are excellent at what they do — iStat Menus for deeply customizable menu bar monitoring, TG Pro for thermals and fan control. MacPulse's angle is different: it's built around interpretation rather than display. The Insights Engine tells you in plain English what's happening and what to do about it, Ask Insights lets you question your Mac's 30-day history in natural language, and Performance Sessions record everything at 1-second resolution (with FPS) for capturing a build, render, or gaming session — with CSV export. If you want the most customizable menu bar readouts or the deepest fan control, those apps are great choices; if you want your Mac to explain itself, that's MacPulse. Pricing €14.99 one-time purchase, no subscription. 14-day full trial, no account required. - Direct: https://www.macpulse.app - Setapp: also available there (new since last post) - Mac App Store (as "System Insights", some features limited by sandboxing): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/system-insights/id6758944826 Happy to answer anything. And if you bought it after the last post, I'd love to hear what's working and what isn't.

I like it, and I'll try it later. However, around $17.16 feels a little expensive for that app. I could be wrong, though. Thanks!

thanks for trying it. I try to be reasonable with my app prices, i always consider what i would be willing to pay for a one time payment given what the value is. Macpulse is not just stats explained. It let's you create fan profiles, record performance sessions and more. Having a 2 week trial is the point of helping you with that decision. Thanks!

Would you consider adding a second license to the purchase? I don’t need 5 but I don’t want to pay twice

I would like to buy but have 2 Macs I want to use it on - is it possible to use on both?

u/jupe69楼主回复

you can deactivate and activate your license as you please

u/r03y回复

Can one license be used on both machines concurrently I too run multiple Mac’s.

Neat update. The natural language querying of system history is a clever angle I have not seen done locally before. Differentiating on interpretation rather than just display is smart. If you ever find yourself wanting to act on those insights automatically (e.g. "move old Xcode builds to trash" or "archive files from the app that uses the most memory"), check out https://useautoshelf.com . It watches folders and executes rules based on conditions like file age, size, type, and more. I am the developer, let me know if you have any questions.
